The Adventures of Robin Hood by Michael Curtiz
Flynn's best, and in glorious color! There has never been an actress who looks more beautiful than Olivia De Havilland in this film. And Basil Rathbone is the ultimate villain, since he brings almost as much charisma as Flynn to his role--and is a better actor. Worth watching again and again.
The biopic of the famous French muckraking writer and his involvement in fighting the injustice of the Dreyfuss Affair. (From IMDb)

Style: Morality play in the style of the time, but a well-done portrait of Zola. Muni as Zola really does an excellent job, and the director uses some nice business.… (more)
